Twenty-one movies, twenty-one femmes (at least). One marriage, one faux-wedding, several suggestive names. Some brighter than others. One actress an Oscar Winner who ALMOST had her Bond character spun off in a series of her own. By following the link you can get a glimpse of ten of the Best Bond Women and continue on to rank them in order of your preference. HOWEVER, I would like to take a moment to list my nominees for the WORST Bond Women. PLEASE, feel free to comment or include your choice. Or you can also add suggestions for the best. I can think of one that should have been listed.
- May Day & Stacy Sutton (both from the forgettable A View to a Kill
. Grace Jones played the statuesque henchwoman of psychopath Max Zorin and former Charlie’s Angel Tanya Roberts played one of the least memorable bombshells)
- Agent Mary Goodnight (dumb name for a dim witted Secret Service agent in The Man With The Golden Gun
)
- Dr. Christmas Jones (from The World Is Not Enough
. Would anyone believe that Denise Richards could ever convincingly portray a nuclear physicist? The last line of the film is pricelessly dreadful. “I’ve always wanted to have Christmas in Turkey.”)
- Bibi Dahl (Olympic ice skating hopeful in For Your Eyes Only
played by Lynn-Holly Johnson fresh from her starring role in Ice Castles
. Total blonde eye candy. MUCH TOO YOUNG for the 54 year old Roger Moore. She was seen continuously throwing herself at him; thankfully, 007 kept his distance.)
I realize that the common concensus is that most Bond women ARE indeed eye candy but there have been many notable exceptions
